Abstract
The global community has prepared for the withdrawal of the U.S. from the Paris Agreement since Donald Trump was elected as the president of the U.S. However, Trump's formal declaration of withdrawal still caused worldwide reaction. Trump will use the withdrawal to build his political reputation and to renegotiate the Paris Agreement despite its negative effects on the political credibility, international relationships, and potential long-term economic growth of the U.S. In general, the withdrawal of the U.S. from the Paris Agreement will not change the development of low-carbon technologies and the transformation trend of the global climate governance regime. However, the long-term goals and international cooperation on climate change will be affected by budget cuts in American climate change research and the cancelation of donations from the multilateral environmental fund of the U.S. If the Paris Agreement is renegotiated, the common but differentiated principle of responsibility of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change will be challenged again. Nevertheless, climate change governance remains a main theme of future sustainable development. Instead of national governments, local governments and non-governmental organizations will develop strategies for technical innovation and emphasize pragmatic cooperation, thus expanding their roles in climate change governance. The capacity building on climate change research and public awareness should be enhanced as a long-term objective of global climate change governance.
Keywords:U.S. withdraw Paris Agreement; Global climate change governance; Impact
1. Introduction
Parties of the United Nation Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) passed the Paris Agreement in its COP21 in December, 2015. As one of the most important outcomes of international multilateral progress, the Paris Agreement showed the willingness of member countries to cooperate and clearly signaled the need for the low-carbon transformation of the international society. Global coopera- tion on the response to climate change thus entered a new era (Zheng et al., 2016; UNEP and Bloomberg, 2017). Driven by
the strong political support, the Paris Agreement came into force shortly within a year in November, 2016. Negotiations under the framework of UNFCCC focused on the details of the Paris Agreement. However, the results of the U.S. presidential election presented potential threats to the implementation of the Paris Agreement. The new U.S. President, Donald Trump, claimed that global warming is a hoax concocted by China to weaken the competitive industrial power of the U.S. He then announced on June 1, 2017 that he had decided to pull the U.S.
out of the non-binding Paris Agreement. Claiming that the Paris Agreement restricts the U.S. while empowering other countries, Trump said the U.S. would begin negotiations to re- enter the agreement and make it“fair”to the U.S.
The withdrawal of the U.S. from the Paris Agreement aroused great response both in and outside the country. Former U.S.
President Obama pointed out that Trump's decision has made the

Projections of future rainfall for the upper Ping River Basin using regression-based downscaling

Abstract
The objective of this study was to use regression modelling, a form of statistical downscaling technique, to predict the daily rainfall occurrence and rainfall amounts for a small river basin, the upper Ping River Basin (UPRB) in northern Thailand. Daily historic (1960e2005) rainfall and a number of daily reanalysis variables (NCEP/NCAR) were used to create regression models that estimate the probabilities of rainfall occurrence (wet days) and amounts (rainfall depth) at each of 29 rain gauge stations located in and around the UPRB. The regression models were calibrated using historic (1960e1989) data and validated using historic (1990e2005) data. Regression models were later applied to historic (1960e2005) GCM outputs (MPI-ESM-LR model) which were adjusted to correspond to the selected reanalysis variables using the Nested Bias Correction (NBC) technique. Rainfall occurrence and amounts were predicted for the periods 2006e2050 and 2051e2100 for RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP8.5 scenarios. Results show that the effects of climate change vary considerably across the catchment, with significantly declines in both the number of wet days and rainfall depth in the wet- and especially the dry-season in the middle of the catchment but obviously increase slightly towards the northern part of the catchment. Since the stepwise regression was used to select the atmospheric variables to form the regression models for simulating rainfall occurrence and amount, different stations have their own predictors and can influence future rainfall to vary significantly between 29 rain gauge stations. If the top three predictors were selected to form the regression models for simulating rainfall occurrence and amount for all stations, the future rainfall characteristics possibly change and can be used to compare with those of presented in this study. It will show either atmospheric predictors or climate change scenarios would have more effect on future rainfall characteristics.

1. Introduction
An assessment of climate change impacts on hydrological studies requires outputs of experiments from General Circu- lation Models (GCMs). However, the GCMs are constrained by their coarse spatial resolution to be used for resolving local scale hydrological processes (Wilby and Wigley, 1997; Wilby et al., 1999; Timbal et al., 2009). Downscaling techniques
have therefore emerged to relate the regional scale atmo- spheric variables to the local scale surface variables. Down- scaling approaches can be separated into two categories;
dynamical and statistical techniques. Strengths and weak- nesses of these two downscaling categories are clearly pre- sented by Wilby et al. (2002). In dynamic downscaling referred to as the Regional Climate Models (RCMs), the time- varying atmospheric conditions supplied by GCMs are used to drive a regional, numerical model in higher spatial resolution (tens of kilometres) to simulate local conditions in greater details. On the other hand, a statistical downscaling establishes a statistical relationship from observations between large scale variables and a single local variable and then subsequently
